tigercat-тигровая кошка

[airplanedriver1]

Fuel issues on the R/H engine... nothing to it, little adjusting will do it.

[whitey5238]

at least u can land with one engine if this happend in air

[SgtGrant23]

Who owns this cat?

[usmctanks1]

I have decided that you need to adopt me...will leave wife..bring dog

[SgtGrant23]

where is this bird based at?

[XOROHN]

what the hell is with the second engine?

[XOROHN]

music to my ears!

[AndreiTupolev]

Nice job they made on that. They don't sound nearly as much like a bag of spanners as some of those engines do. I like the Cessna floatplane trundling past at 1:15.

[igor79793]

двойная оса вот как переводится pw double wasp!

[SgtGrant23]

did she just get new engines or were they getting worked on?

[ymanganelli]

That's a beautiful aircraft:) love the sound of those radial engines:) sweet~

[Fireheart528]

@ymanganelli Would be nice if someone found out how to make them as a car engine.

[ymanganelli]

@Fireheart528 hehe absolutely.. would love to have one

[Fireheart528]

@ymanganelli i hope to find a sound recording of this engine and synchronize the sound to the rear wheel on my bicycle. that would be wickedly epic.

[rusttrail3]

Sweet video, a radial piston engine is like a big block V8, nothing sounds as good as they do.

[geraldhaislet1991]

very nice camera shots . whose tigercat is that.

[1339LARS]

The sleekest prop aircraft ever!! A bute!!

[WWIIWhistlingDeath]

BEAST!!!!!

[rickey5353]

The sound of those engines through headphones just gives me wood.

[kevinlin1013]

R-2800 rocks !

[dinerdave44]

number two balked a few times but ...tcht! round motors... gotta love 'em...

[FlyingHigh777ER]

Piston engines 4 life !!

[angryace13]

yep, jet power is nice but there aint nuthin like a good old piston engine.

[Dave839]

One of the sexiest twin radials ever!!

[nuclear944]

Along with the P-61...

[TMoorej]

looks like a slim-down version pf a B26

[a2g6d4k8]

lovely aircraft, but the 2 Grumman birds I

will always be fondest of from that time are

the HELLCAT & BEARCAT.

[Bergstaller01]

as a round engine fan......AWESOME! .... loved how engine #2 was giving little fits, do u know what was causing the backfires?

[louswire]

Have you flown her yet?

[louswire]

oops... my bad. So wrapped up in this clip, I hadn't looked at the menu yet. absolutely gorgeous.

[hyattandy]

I love the sound of those huge radial engines :)

Very cool vid :)

[frogeye3000]

thx for sharing.

what a great piece of work.

how i love to hear the sound of propellers!

like a good piece of music.

is there a chance to hear the plane at any german airshow?

[mbygone]

Good work VAM ILIKEIT

Peter

[ledzep152]

great work...hope to get a chance to be around warbirds someday

[ajaciedjuh]

cool

[selby06]

that starboard engine has some serious issues

[Stootn]

we found some carb/fuel issues but have gotten things sorted out now

[hsxakj]

Could you please tell me what engines does the aircraft have? Does it retain its 2,100hp R-2800-34W engines?

[Stootn]

Yes it has the original PW Double Wasp engines.

[SgtGrant23]

@Stootn so it has the same engines as the Corsair R-2800's

[kirkconway]

@Stootn

I was gonna say then carb and the fuel system act like they were either dirty or

not getting enough fuel to the cylinder's,

Which is why it was acting like it wanted to quit or stall out,

or pop and backfire,

glad it's running good now though,

[BSSSeca]

You must be lovin' your job Stoot !
